Photos are one of the only things that become more valuable over time. Think about it! We finally realize it 20+ years after they are taken and we look back to remember the story!

Hello and welcome! Whether it is your first baby or your fifth, this is the most precious time to capture. Your baby will only be this small for a short period. Let’s capture their chubby cheeks, fuzzy hair, tiny fingers and toes, squishy lips and tiny smirks. We love to capture siblings and parents as well, so we include any family member that would like to be involved. That also includes grandparents! Bring the fam! I am a south jersey newborn photographer specializing in capturing your first family photo and freezing time to remember your baby while they are still so little.

“Jackie is truly the baby whisperer!

My son was wide awake when we arrived and Jackie knew exactly which shots she wanted to get at that moment. When she wanted him to sleep, she rocked him and got the perfect angelic looks. She didn’t even flinch when he had a major poop blowout all over her swaddles! She cleaned him up without even batting an eye and even encouraged us to go get a snack (that she had all set up for us when we got there) so we wouldn’t have to worry about it. We wanted to highlight our IVF journey in this shoot and Jackie went as far as going to Build a Bear to get a lab coat that would fit our very tiny “science baby”. Who else would do that?!”

frequently asked questions

It’s best to book your due date on our calendar 3 months before. We only take 5 newborns a month so that we can give our clients the best experience. We also want schedule your design consultation so we can go over all of your expectations for your sessions. Is your baby here already? Not a problem! Still inquire to see if we have availability. We know babies come when they want, so we understand last minute bookings as well.

There are many reasons why we don’t just do digital images.

The number one reason is because your family deserves to be seen in printed albums and wall art for years to come. Studies show that children are more confident and feel more loved when they see their photos on the wall of their home.

The second reason is because we are a done for you service! Think of it…. Wam bam thank you ma’am! You get your images and then don’t have to design an album or wall art! Everything is also guaranteed for a lifetime. If something breaks or is damaged accidently, we replace it 100%.  Walmart and Shutterfly are not going to do that for you.

Reason three? You are supporting a local small business and her employees that have families!

Here is a blog about some reason’s why digital images are hurting you in the long run. 

Not a problem! We have photographed babies 6 weeks and older as well. You just take the time to think about recovering and supporting your little peanut!

Absolutely! We use pinterest boards are a guide. Not all babies go into certain poses. We take your pinterest board and add it into our workflow for your session. Sometimes babies do not like to be naked or do not like their fingers fussed with, so if babies become uncomfortable or fussy, we then move onto the next pose in our workflow. We average about 10-20 different set ups.

Of course it is! But! I had to be done right. At Stinsman Photography, we have been trained by the best in the business and have attended multiple safety seminars. We are CPR certified and know many queues if baby is in distress or uncomfortable. Check out this blog about how to pick the right photographer that is trained in newborn safety!

We like babies to be between 12-20 days new. Online you will see many sites say 7-10 days but we find that nursing mothers are still growing their milk supply and some many need additional doctors appointments. We find the best days to be between 14-16 days. Of course, we have photographed sooner and later then 20 days, so if baby needs come extra time in the NICU or appointments we are always flexible!
